While heated discussions and arguments are okay, avoid direct personal attacks on other forum members. There is a certain level of acceptable banter, but do not cross it -- respect the wishes of others and warnings from the moderators.

No irrelevant posts!

Do not post the same thing twice. Create threads in the appropriate forum. Do not post something completely unrelated to a topic of a thread. Threads often drift off topic, and this is fine. If the thread diverges into multiple unrelated topics, it will often be split by the moderators.

Nothing illegal!

Do not conduct illegal activity on these forums -- specifically software piracy. While laws vary in different countries and there are many legal gray areas, these forums are hosted in the United States and subject to its laws. Any court orders will be complied with.

Forum Guidelines

Listen to the moderators!

When a moderator makes a request -- like not posting in a certain thread, or keeping a civil attitude -- follow it. Do not argue, if you have a concern, discuss it with private messages.

Do not post asking for moderation!

If you've found something you think needs attention from the moderators, report the post. Don't post requests for threads to be locked, messages to be deleted, or anything similar. It will be taken care of, do not add to it.
